in Japan Told * . * ★
Moscow Tie-up Hinted
low strong is communism in ] ers has alienated many of them
|>an? How is Japanese commun-related with the Soviet Union Communist China? rhese questions were discussed kterday by Rodger Swearingen, fiting assistant professor of inter-lonal relations, speaking before Intercultural chib In the Inter -tional lounge.
'•Communism has existed legally a party only since the close of rid War n,” Swearingen said, lt during the period between 1922
Id the outbreak of hostilities the rty had functioned secretly.
Orders From Moscow ^'Fundamentally. the party that (lerged into the open following the is the same party which was erating underground before and ^ring the war. Many casual ob-rers don’t realise this. They think [at Japanese Communism is a |ied down variety, not subservient the directives from Moscow.” speaking informally to the group, rearinger. said that he felt that le vast majority of the Japanese ■ople would never accept Com-unism. but that this f^ct didn’t duce tfte danger of eventual Com-unist domination of the country.
Alienates JajMuieae “Traditional Japanese reverence or the emperor, which the Com-unists have attacked, distrust of Russians and the traditionally conservative core of the Japanese asant make it difficult for the runists to win over the major-y of Japanese.” Swearingen said. Korean war has shocked many the people and the -Sonet failure repatriate Japanese war prison -
from Communism..
“The threat of violence has grown, however, since the party has begun to move way from its original nonviolence policy. Lak month’s Com-nmnist-iripired riots throughout Japan show that the party has begun to attack ‘imperialistic’ industry. This could become acute if it is continued.”
Hit Peak in 1950 The party reached its peak of power in 1950. having a registered strength of 110.000. Swearingen said. The registered total fell to 30.000 after the outbreak of {he war in Korea.
“This doesn’t mean that Communist strength has slipped proportionately. however,” he said. “Some Japenese must have begun to realize that the party was really a Soviet enterprise, contrary to Communist claims, but the fact is tha many party workers were put cm a secret* membership list so that they might more easily infiltrate into capitalist organizations.
No Signs of Revolt “Japanese Communists receive their orders directly from Moscow and Peking and are a definite link in the chain of international Communism. Of course, there is always the chance of a revolt agr.inst the Kremlin in the Tito style, but there are no signs of it now.”
Swearingen said that the material from his talk came from his forthcoming book. “Red Flag in Japan: International Communism in Action. 1919-1951,” written in collaboration with Paul Longer. The book, published by the Harvard University press, will be released in June.

Philosopher Outlines Reasons for Laughter
The fact that every person laughs uch more than he weeps “does not that man is a happy crea-ure. for there are many reasons for ughter.” Dr. Alfred Stem said yesterday's philosophy forum.
Dr. Stern, writer of several phil-iy books and currehtly a lec-urer in the French department, ex-lained some of the reasons why ;ple laugh and cry.
The near capacity crowd—sut>-lemented by attendance en masse Dr. Frank Baxter's English hu-class—lingered to question the hilosopher after his hour-long peech.
New Philosophical Aspect
Dr Stem, who has taught at nu-rous European universities, bean by answering his own question f “how the psychological phenom-na of laughter and tears can be
explained philosophically.” He contrasted the beliefs of past philosophers with some of his to illustrate the new perspective with which he considers laughter and tears.
To Dr. Stern, laughter and tears are forms of evaluation.
• Laughter is not a laughing mat-i ter. but a consideration of the most serious kind," he said. “One basic cause for it is that man suffers so deeply, he must give vent to his laughter. He laughs to achieve relief from excessive melancholy.” Develops Theory Developing his theory of values, the continental scholar said that man "laughs when his values are merely degraded, and weeps when values ave actually lost or are unattainable.”
Fagg to Pick State Officer
A university liaison represent a tive to work with the State Senate Committee on un-American Activi ties will be appointed by President Fred D. Fagg Jr.
The representative will help Southern California schools coor dinate action against subversive campus activities.
The recommendation for having an officer of this kind at colleges was brought up at a meeting of the committee on campus Monday. Representatives of nine institutions attended on the invitation of President Fagg and Robert G. Sproul, president of the University of California.
The group unanimously agreed that each of the schools appoint a person to be liaison between the school and the committee in ascertaining what Reds are up to on campus.
Committee Chairman Sen. Hugh M. Burns and his counsel. Richard E. Combs, acted for the committee in the hearirifc.
Will Call Others
“We will shortly call together the presidents of the Northern California colleges and universities for a similar purpose,” said Senator Burns. “We cr.me here first because there are more of them here.” (He presumably meant schools rather than Communists.)
“Communists have been especially active.” Combs said, “in getting into educational institutions where research projects are under way for the government. We are working on the first phase of an overall program to deal with this.”
Representatives of Cal Tech, Claremont, Occidental. Redlands, Loyola. Pomona, and Whittier attended.
Albert S. Raubenheimer, educational vice-president, attended the meeting due to the illness of President Fagg. *
Good by Play Mixes College Ilk Nostalgia
A politically liberal Congresswoman will be returning to her alma mater to receive an honorary degree and to renew a 20-year-old romance with the president of the college, when the drama department presents “Goodbye, My Fancy" on Apr. 3-8, with a dark Apr. 7.
Written by Fay Kanin, this is the play that ran for nearly 13 months in New York, and also scored hits in many other major cities. William C. deMille will direct the campus production.
College Problems Mrs. Kanin's comedy confronts the problems that face private colleges and universities of today—the unhappy status of frightened liberals, freedom of speech, and spiritual courage in the modern world.
Despite the serious intonations, the play's approach is one of humor and understanding, interwoven with romance and nostalgia that overtakes old grads on a visit to their alma mater.
Tickets to the SC presentation of ‘Goodby. My Fancy” are now on sale at the University Ticket office They were probably up all night [ }n the student Union. Orchestra

an? How is Japanese commun-related with the Soviet Union Communist China? rhese questions were discussed kterday by Rodger Swearingen, fiting assistant professor of inter-lonal relations, speaking before Intercultural chib In the Inter -tional lounge.
'•Communism has existed legally a party only since the close of rid War n,” Swearingen said, lt during the period between 1922
Id the outbreak of hostilities the rty had functioned secretly.
Orders From Moscow ^'Fundamentally. the party that (lerged into the open following the is the same party which was erating underground before and ^ring the war. Many casual ob-rers don’t realise this. They think [at Japanese Communism is a |ied down variety, not subservient the directives from Moscow.” speaking informally to the group, rearinger. said that he felt that le vast majority of the Japanese ■ople would never accept Com-unism. but that this f^ct didn’t duce tfte danger of eventual Com-unist domination of the country.
Alienates JajMuieae “Traditional Japanese reverence or the emperor, which the Com-unists have attacked, distrust of Russians and the traditionally conservative core of the Japanese asant make it difficult for the runists to win over the major-y of Japanese.” Swearingen said. Korean war has shocked many the people and the -Sonet failure repatriate Japanese war prison -
from Communism..
“The threat of violence has grown, however, since the party has begun to move way from its original nonviolence policy. Lak month’s Com-nmnist-iripired riots throughout Japan show that the party has begun to attack ‘imperialistic’ industry. This could become acute if it is continued.”
Hit Peak in 1950 The party reached its peak of power in 1950. having a registered strength of 110.000. Swearingen said. The registered total fell to 30.000 after the outbreak of {he war in Korea.
“This doesn’t mean that Communist strength has slipped proportionately. however,” he said. “Some Japenese must have begun to realize that the party was really a Soviet enterprise, contrary to Communist claims, but the fact is tha many party workers were put cm a secret* membership list so that they might more easily infiltrate into capitalist organizations.
No Signs of Revolt “Japanese Communists receive their orders directly from Moscow and Peking and are a definite link in the chain of international Communism. Of course, there is always the chance of a revolt agr.inst the Kremlin in the Tito style, but there are no signs of it now.”
Swearingen said that the material from his talk came from his forthcoming book. “Red Flag in Japan: International Communism in Action. 1919-1951,” written in collaboration with Paul Longer. The book, published by the Harvard University press, will be released in June.

Philosopher Outlines Reasons for Laughter
The fact that every person laughs uch more than he weeps “does not that man is a happy crea-ure. for there are many reasons for ughter.” Dr. Alfred Stem said yesterday's philosophy forum.
Dr. Stern, writer of several phil-iy books and currehtly a lec-urer in the French department, ex-lained some of the reasons why ;ple laugh and cry.
The near capacity crowd—sut>-lemented by attendance en masse Dr. Frank Baxter's English hu-class—lingered to question the hilosopher after his hour-long peech.
New Philosophical Aspect
Dr Stem, who has taught at nu-rous European universities, bean by answering his own question f “how the psychological phenom-na of laughter and tears can be
explained philosophically.” He contrasted the beliefs of past philosophers with some of his to illustrate the new perspective with which he considers laughter and tears.
To Dr. Stern, laughter and tears are forms of evaluation.
• Laughter is not a laughing mat-i ter. but a consideration of the most serious kind," he said. “One basic cause for it is that man suffers so deeply, he must give vent to his laughter. He laughs to achieve relief from excessive melancholy.” Develops Theory Developing his theory of values, the continental scholar said that man "laughs when his values are merely degraded, and weeps when values ave actually lost or are unattainable.”
